LOL I am like 1/8 Italian. More Irish and English in the blood. Lu has started like 12 of the last 14 - he needs a rest. He wasn't the reason they lost but he sure doesn't win games by himself anymore.

Nice to see Kevin Connautin in the lineup. He had a bad read in the game, but looked pretty good overall. He's quite offensive minded out there, has a few points already and looks a bit like edler (size, skating and #23). I can see why the Canucks drafted him, but maybe we should of gave him a look with a few games in the NHL before moving him.

Looks like the guys wanted to start their Christmas break a bit early. They won a few in a row and figured they could mail it in and still win. That third Stars' goal allowed was awful. Start Lack tonight.
